ESP LTD 405

What are your thoughts on this bass.
I've been looking around for a 5-stringer (or a better amp CAN'T DECIDE!). I will be playing metal mostly but want it to be versatile for other things in the future should they arise. Well if any of you have played/own this bass can you share your thoughts on it?
Thanks in advance.

Oh I forgot is this a good bass for the money or are there better out there at the same price or lower even?

They aren't too bad, nothing special though. For metal, they're great (if you use a pick).. But for other forms of music, I wouldn't recommend them too highly

I got an ESP as my first bass. Although metal seems to be where they shine the most and what they are used fot the most, I have to say that I got a lot for my buck. For the $400 I spent on it, it sound increadible, and they can be used for other styles successfully- anything from jazz, to metal, to slap, to, my favorite, worship...anything. How much does that model go for about?
